According to an Indian legend, the Apaches tried to make a pact with the white man. One day, a group of 70 of them left their tribe and decided to go and sign a peace treaty. They were ambushed by soldiers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFifty of the seventy men were killed. The twenty or so men still alive took refuge on a mountaintop. They chose to jump into the void rather than be killed by the hand of the white man. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen the news reached the rest of the tribe, consisting mainly of women, children and elders, they began to cry in pain. The families of the brave men who were killed shed many tears, which fell to the earth.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese families were so grief-stricken that the Great Spirit decided to turn their tears into small black stones. Legend has it that the wearer of an Apache tear obsidian will never cry again. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn reality, these are small \"drops\" of volcanic glass. They are often embedded in gray perlite (volcanic rock containing water). This presence of water during cooling causes the obsidian to hydrate. The water that penetrates the glass converts into perlite. When the perlite is not completely filled with water, pockets of obsidian remain in the form of Apache tear pebbles. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis obsidian appears opaque, but when exposed to light, its transparency can be seen. It then resembles smoky quartz. It is said that this stone, when exposed to light, reveals the transparent tears of Apache women. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eApache tear obsidian is black or dark gray with small white inclusions. It is also known as \"smoky obsidian\". It is said to bring good luck to the wearer. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe main deposits are in Mexico and the United States. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn lithotherapy, Apache tear obsidian is particularly recommended for people who have just experienced a tragedy, such as the loss of a loved one, a romantic breakup, or unfair dismissal. It promotes the release of deep sorrows and allows the acceptance of suffering. It is a stone of consolation and liberation. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNative Americans use this stone for good luck and to protect them from dark forces. Apache tear obsidian acts as an armor against negative energies, harmful influences, and bad vibes. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis stone helps to think objectively, to control one's feelings and passions. It generates compassion and forgiveness to maintain balance. It helps to live in the present moment and releases blockages related to the past. It encourages letting go of resentments, grudges, and anger.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDuring introspection, it brings negative feelings that cause psychological blockages to the surface. By providing understanding, it frees people who have difficulty letting go of the past. It also eliminates inferiority complexes and lack of self-confidence. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn case of relationship problems, Apache tear obsidian ensures balance in times of difficulty or crisis. It encourages letting go and giving up the need to control everything. It promotes quality communication. \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top: 16px; font-size: 0.9em; color: #555;\"\u003eA natural stone with recognized virtues in lithotherapy, \u003ca title=\"Black obsidian: virtues, properties and benefits\" href=\"https:\/\/www.laboiteacailloux.com\/collections\/obsidienne-noire\"\u003eblack obsidian\u003c\/a\u003e gently accompanies daily life.
